An Android library implementing the QuickReturn UI pattern, which reveals or hides a header and/or footer view as content is scrolled. It supports RecyclerView, ListView, and ScrollView and is now deprecated in favor of CoordinatorLayout with Behaviors.

Use cases

  • show a quick return header that hides when scrolling down
  • add a footer that reveals on scroll up like Facebook or Twitter apps
  • implement scroll-aware toolbars in a RecyclerView
  • recreate the Google+ quick return scrolling effect in Android
  • hide and show views based on scroll direction in a ListView

When to choose

  • maintaining a legacy Android app already using the library
  • targeting old Android versions where CoordinatorLayout is unavailable
  • needing a simple drop-in quick return implementation for ListView or ScrollView

When to avoid

  • starting a new Android project - use CoordinatorLayout with Behaviors instead
  • needing actively maintained or supported code
  • using modern Android Jetpack components
